i’m back…did you miss me?
not sure if you missed me, but match missed me…and my money. so i joined about 3 weeks ago, and went on my first face to face meeting yesterday. technically there was one before that, but i don’t consider it a formal meeting if the guy meets you and says he hates your choice of restaurant because he can’t stand the smell of the place, then suggests another place but runs away. long story. i don’t really want to get into it because its not worth it, but anyway, he was an ass and his appearance was nothing that made me feel upset about his attitude. moving on…
i met up with someone on saturday. in his photo (yes, ONE photo), he looked kind of cute, with those trendy glasses and anime hair. when i met him at starbucks, he did not have the anime hair nor the glasses. not as cute as the pic, but willing to give him a chance, i greeted him and started to chat. our chat turned into soapboxing the fact that asians have a tendency to segregate themselves from other races in college. on top of that, he told me he was just ‘riding out’ his 6 free months on match and didn’t really care much for it. bitter much? anyway, needless to say, this meeting did not prove to be fruitful, but i think i could be friends with him. i can imagine my asian roommate liking him or getting along with her and her friends.
today, i was supposed to meet up with sculptor-guy. we had exchanged some emails and had plans to meet up at a certain time for coffee, but it was nearing 4pm, and he had not called me. i took that as inconsiderate, so i emailed him telling him i didn’t hear from him so i made other plans. he quickly called me after i sent that, apologized, and we had a decent conversation. he said he wants to meet up with me, so we said we would try for the following weekend.
surprisingly, a match guy who had been texting me and trying to get together asked me if i wanted to meet up at 5:30. i was free, so i figured why not. we went for ice cream, and he spent the entire meeting interrogating me. not sure if that was a good thing or not, but he pretty much told me he is ready to meet the one already and was trying to figure out if he was my type and basically why did my past relationships fail. he then, told me about how his last gf was the same ethnicity as me but pretty much dumb as a brick. not a hard act to follow, i think. but anyway, i think he was a bit nervous but that came out as a little cocky. he did mention more than once that he has “no problem meeting girls”, blah blah blah, and mentioned that he had an expensive sportscar once upon a time until said gf told him he had to sell it because he was attracting too much attention. after hanging out, he asked if i wanted a ride home, but i politely declined because i don’t want to get into the car of a stranger AND have him know where i live. i think he just wanted to impress me with whatever nice car he had. i like that i declined because it showed that i didn’t care about those types of things.
i’m supposed to meet up with an actor boy tomorrow who is supposedly excited to see me. we’ll see how that goes. because as we know, LA is full of flakes and actors are notorious for that.
well, its interesting to be back, but i think i’m back with a better attitude and outlook on life and dating. hopefully that will attract better people that the nightmares i’ve had in the past!!!
